Newport Tower, Office tower in Newport, Jersey City, United States.
Newport Tower is a modern office and retail building located on the Jersey City waterfront, standing 37 stories tall with a height of approximately 162 meters. The structure rises from a mix of structural steel, glass, limestone, and reinforced concrete elements that make up its distinctive exterior.
The tower was built between 1990 and 1991 as commercial real estate entered a new phase of development. Its completion marked an important moment for the waterfront district as it transformed from industrial use to a modern office and retail hub.
The building reflects modern architectural principles through its design, incorporating elements that demonstrate the evolution of commercial architecture in urban settings.
The building features 18 elevators serving both office and retail spaces throughout the structure. Its waterfront location provides convenient connections to nearby public transportation options for commuting to Manhattan and other areas.
Multi-Employer Property Trust acquired Newport Tower for 377.5 million dollars in 2011, marking the largest office property transaction in New Jersey at that time.
